All in Sculpture
"Taking inspiration from the figure of the apple and using its shape as a constructive basis, I then modified the aesthetics of each of the proposed apples, obtaining a sort of colorful portrait of a society with a common morphology and a different culture, my intent is that everyone can accept their own uniqueness" In my sculptural work, the apple symbolizes self-acceptance and the uniqueness of each individual.
Art can penetrate deeply into one’s mind, generating different opinions and understanding. My main objective is always to create something meaningful and beautiful, a piece of art that can inspire, bring happiness, and at the same time, positively captivate the public’s attention.
The choice of materials in Caroline’s oeuvre is as eclectic as the symbols she employs. From natural resin to clay, flax to artificial resin, wool to lead, plaster to glass, and bronze to stone — her palette encompasses a diverse array. The seemingly incompatible nature of these materials captivates the viewer. Their contrasting properties create a visual tension that resonates in the overall ambiance of her work.
Dunham is a process-based artist creating 3-dimensional material studies/sketches primarily composed of basic geometric shapes and lines through accumulation. Each study is assigned a numerical title that documents the process and materials used. Her hope is to challenge viewers to pause and appreciate the transformative powers of the creative process and to call attention to the essentially ordinary origins of even the most extraordinary works of art.
My specificity as a sculptor lies in my main tool: the manual plasma cutter. Well-known in the industrial world, it is much rarer in the artistic realm. With it, I cut through thick steel plates, transforming fragments of this heavy material into delicate lace.
Vasile Stefanoiu, a Romanian sculptor, believes art must convey a message and sees sculpture as a restorative force. He creates sustainable circular art using recycled and reused resources.

At the core of Ferry Benjamin’s practice is his mastery of the manual plasma cutter. This industrial tool, traditionally reserved for heavy manufacturing, becomes in his hands an instrument of sublime precision and expression. Benjamin cuts through dense steel with the dexterity of a painter wielding a fine brush, transforming the unyielding material into intricate lattices that mimic organic forms. The result is a body of work that blurs the line between the natural and the industrial.
In the vivid, scintillating world of Lynn Movish’s art, each vintage lunchbox transformed into a bedazzled art piece is not just a container but a portal to a fantastical universe. Her collection, featuring repurposed metal lunchboxes intricately adorned with Austrian crystals, presents a unique intersection of nostalgia, luxury, and imaginative expression, positioning Movish as a visionary in the fusion of art and fashion.
Sculpture is my most common form of expression, but I consider myself a multifunctional artist. In many cases I describe life with deep emotions. Depending on the moment and state of the creative process, I always play intuitively with spontaneity. Also for me, the line transmuted into wire is the personal representation of my ideas and thoughts. A line that, curving, twisting and undulating, seeks to find its own space from the inside. These lines suggestive power transmits moods, thus building a personal language.
“I became aware that I have a responsibility for what I release into the world around me. Artists used to be educators. My desire is to take a step back to a time when art was subservient to its spiritual and pedagogical purpose.”
For me it is natural to see ‘things’ in nature, in a stone, in a dry or burnt tree and then give it form and soul. For me it is normal to spend hours in my forest creating new installations, or tending to the present ones, subjected to the inclement weather, and it is easy to explain the motto chosen at the beginning of the artistic path created in my garden, which, taken from an opera by Verdi, says; ‘it is either a joke or madness’.

His art is sculptural wall work made mainly with wood, steel and acrylics. With these materials, he plays with movement, balance and space. He utilizes found objects represented alone or assembled with others relying on their inherent symbology or histories to create stories.
The themes in my work are often inspired by the feminine nature that comes from within, as a woman and a mother. Many of my sculptures depict female subjects created to empower and inspire the feminine balance in this world. The sacred feminine is the essence of life, a symbol of creation, unconditional love, resilience and hope.
Tinamaria Marongiu is a Sardinian sculptor who has made waste material her most intimate artistic signature. A pioneer of COMPACT ART, an expression that translated into art in 2013, she invents a specific way of creating 3D art, combining old waste materials and new materials, inorganic and organic, metals, pastes and colors, which, when joined together, become a single and compact body, fragments of the universe and events of our existence.
Arimathea Pappas is a name that will resonate deeply in the contemporary art world, a contemporary mixed media artist whose work transcends the physical realm into a space where nature, spirituality, and human consciousness merge. Her pieces, as seen in the collection presented, invite viewers into a visceral, almost primal connection with the land and spiritual traditions of the First Nations. This is not just art; it is a communion between earth, material, and soul.
I feel myself change as I look at an object of beauty. It has calmed me from childhood, the blue shadows on the snow, and the sparkling raindrops on leaves. The late great Canadian encaustic painter, Tony Scherman, said that you know it’s beauty because there’s pain in it. This is my experience also. Sometimes, you can’t look away. My only explanation is that it is something divine.
Ali Rouse's artistic creations are a profound reflection on the concepts of animism, shamanism, and the eternal cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Her work presents an awe-inspiring symbiosis between animal remains and ornate craftsmanship, giving new life to what was once part of the wild. Each piece is a tribute to the spirit of the animal and the materials sourced from nature, interweaving them into a complex narrative of existence, transformation, and permanence.

He has received numerous awards in national and international art competitions for Public Sculpture and Singular Architecture.
